    Don't be shy about the healthy alternatives! Both the turkey and whole wheat bun options for any of the burgers are delicious.

    They don' have honey mustard any more. So no more 'Pelican' Burgers. (We asked our helpful server Mike.) but anything else, from the old menu, if we have the ingredients, we'll make it.

    Burger was great. Fries Smallest order I've ever seen, literally 15 fries. Asked the waitress, all she could say "you get endless refills" wouldn't need a refill if you brought enough the first time.

    The food is decent, but I ordered a bud light and they charge 5.60 per bottle. This is extremely pricey for domestic beer
